The future will likely be a lot different than most people expect.
For example, when I was young in the 1950s and 1960s people expected something like the Jetsons which was a cartoon show about a futuristic family.
That isn't really what happened.
The future is always unexpected.
For example, in your worst nightmare could anyone have predicted a worst president "A la Hitler" than Trump who actually would cause an insurrection and try to get in the same day, the Speaker of the House and the Vice President Killed so they couldn't stand in the way of his becoming literally like Hitler in Germany? And even AOC barely survived this incident too hiding somewhere when people who wanted to kill her were looking for her?
So, often when people predict the future they really have no idea what they are talking about.
For example, when I look at what is happening on earth through Putin I see a Hitlerian future at least for Europe that could be caused by Putin.
I suppose the biggest question is: "Will Putin die of whatever cancer he has first?" Possibly this could happen too because the swelled up head of Putin presently is a real indicator that he is dying of some sort of Cancer if you listen to health professionals worldwide. But, will he live 1 to 5 years or 10 years? This is unknown and how many people will he massacre before he dies. And who will take his place and will they be better or worse than him?
So, if I logically look at the future because of Putin I see starvation worldwide caused by the end of Globalization and the cost of Oil Energy while the richer nations switch to solar or wind or geothermal or even waves off of the ocean created energy.
So, the point here is likely many people will starve from the grain not sent there from Ukraine and Russia simply because of the war in Ukraine especially if they are in North AFrica or all of Africa during at the very least the next 2 years time.
What nations will fare the best?
The U.S. is likely to be one of the best faring nations in some ways because of our abundant natural resources. However, droughts and flooding in the U.S. could affect what we are able to grow too.
When I look at nations who might fare the worst in some ways I see China being a problem because of flooding of their main crops. But, they also have the money to buy all the grain which will starve out North Africa and all of Africa too and possibly other third world nations having flooding and droughts and governmental problems and economic problems of all kinds.
But, the U.S. also might be close to a civil war between the states too which is already beginning in legal conflicts over abortion and other things too. So, all the things that could actually cause another civil war over abortion are in place and moving forward also.
So, the best that can be said is that even the U.S. is facing massive instability over abortion and food, even though we might be able to grow enough for ourselves as long as we don't ship too much grain and other foodstuffs overseas this year.
So, looking at the world realistically we can expect around 400 to 500 million people (mostly in 3rd world nations) to starve to death because food will be too expensive (or not available at all) to survive.
And this is going to cause what I might call "Food Wars" as people become more and more desperate to survive worldwide these next few years.
And at the root of all this is Putin dying of Cancer?
This appears to be the case (at least at this point).
Putin and Trump have ended Globalization which was the only possible way at present to feed everyone alive on earth at a reasonable price of food. So, food wars should be expected over the next few years especially like we have seen in Sri Lanka so far. Because food wars tend to collapse third world governments.
And it isn't always the fault of the leaders because usually these problems have been festering for 25 to 50 years already in these places and the present leaders will leave or be assassinated which creates even more problems for these nations. In other words once a government collapses it often takes 10 to 25 to never years for these things to resolve themselves into something useful for the people actually living there.
So, this means instability in many places will be ongoing for many years to come because of Putin and Trump's actions destroying globalization. Millions will starve to death or be killed in conflicts now worldwide because of the things that Putin and Trump have done together to harm the world. And because Putin is still killing people every day this could continue like this unabated getting worse for years to come.
I equate the Ukraine War a little like I think of the Korean War and the Viet Nam War. They were both proxy wars between the democracies and totalitarian states. the Ukraine war is the same thing in many many ways.
So, if you want to understand the Ukraine war maybe study the Korean war and the Viet Nam War and how long both conflicts continued and what the results were in both cases.
